Pathfinders For Autism

OUR MISSION & PROGRAMS

Our mission is simple – to improve the lives of individuals with autism and the people who care for them. We accomplish this through a variety of programs and services, all of which are offered FREE of charge.

THE PATHFINDERS FOR AUTISM RESOURCE CENTER

The Pathfinders for Autism Resource Center is the cornerstone of our efforts to serve Maryland’s families by:

• providing timely, accurate autism-specific information and resources
• responding personally to inquiries via telephone, email and Facebook
• distributing monthly “PFA Tips” articles on a variety of topics.

The Pathfinders for Autism Resource Center helps families navigate the often confusing and complex array of services, treatment, and programs available to them. Our staff receives calls from parents who have just received a diagnosis; caregivers of adults with autism in need of support services; individuals with autism who are seeking services for themselves; and professionals working with clients with autism.

The Pathfinders for Autism website is a critical link to the thousands of families and professionals we serve throughout Maryland. The site offers a searchable, online database of more than 2,200 providers along with informative articles and a calendar of autism-specific events.
